Would Bills miss Milano?

Matt Milano walking would be a bit of a setback but it isn’t devastating for Buffalo. Drafting or signing a replacement hopefully won’t be too difficult. AJ Klein is already on the roster and provides a third linebacker and depth a pass rusher in certain situations. But I do’’t think it is a foregone conclusion Milano is walking. If there is a cap crunch (which will happen if the cap is set between $180-$190M to varying degrees) the longer term deal he wants may not be out there and he might be willing to take a one-year $7-8M deal from the Bills and stay in a system that makes him look good (and one where you can win, which is a plus) and hope to get a bigger deal in 2022 when he will still be young and productive enough to get his longer term big money deal.

If Milano does walk, that will hurt a lot more than many here want to admit. The defense simply played a lot better with him and worse without him. He had a major impact. But the cap is the cap. We won’t be able to sign everyone we’d like to in a better year.

I would try to re-sign Milano, but with money as tight as it is I’m not sure they can. Overall, our LB unit doesn’t have much depth so I would try to figure out a way to keep him. May end up losing him and Williams. Not to worried about Williams as he can be replaced quickly in draft. As for LB, I’m not so sure we’ll get lucky again.

Milano’s a good player but the defense (or team for that matter) will be fine without him. A combination of Klein/Dodson/FA and or mid round draft pick will fill the void.

1st & Ten with STEFON DIGGS

Stefon Diggs had one of the best seasons ever by a Bills receiver in 2020, and he’s looking for an encore. Diggs was clearly amped up and ready to go as the Bills began their preparations for the new season, leading the huddle and supporting his teammates as they kicked off training camp in Orchard Park. Diggs recently touched on his goals for the upcoming season for both himself and the team in an informative discussion with members of the media. Here are the highlights from that discussion.

RUNNING BACKS: TOP AVAILABLE FREE AGENTS

Aaron Jones, Packers 5-9 • 208 pounds • 27 years old A fifth-round steal in the 2017 draft out of UTEP, Jones is equally proficient in the running and passing games. He rushed for more than 1,000 yards the last two years, and caught 49 and 47 passes, respectively. He’s also a touchdown machine with 30 TDs the last two years (25 rushing and 5 receiving). The son of two career Army officers, he’s a tough, driven player and the kind of guy players want on their team.

QUARTERBACKS: TOP AVAILABLE FREE AGENTS

Dak Prescott, Cowboys 6-2 • 235 pounds • 27 years old A solid starter who has a nice TD-INT ratio over his first five seasons (104-40), Prescott is an accurate thrower and very mobile. However, he’s coming off a compound fracture and dislocation of his right ankle, so it remains to be seen if this will impact his game moving forward.

Hunter Henry, Chargers 6-5 • 250 pounds • 29 years old A very talented player, Henry has had issues staying healthy, unable to complete an NFL season, including missing the entire 2018 season with a torn ACL. But when healthy, he’s a terrific all-around tight end who really connected with Justin Herbert in 2020 with 60 catches. Henry is very good at finding holes in zone coverage.
